Prep time: 5 min | Cook time: 0 min | Total time: 5 min Ingredients

2 stickssoftened butter, unsalted

3 1/2 cupspowdered sugar

10 dropspeppermint essential oil or 2 teaspoons peppermint extract

10Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies, crushed

Directions

Place butter into stand mixer and beat until well combined. Slowly add powdered sugar, peppermint and crushed Thin Mints. Beat until combined, but be cautious to not over mix. Remove and store in an airtight container for up to 7-10 days. If you refrigerate, thaw to room temperature before using.

I’ll be trying this with the peppermint extract! For those who are not familiar with EOs, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not ingest them, and also research the use of peppermint on children under 6. They are not safe, we dont even keep it in the house for that reason. Thank you for the recipes!
